More Frenzy . . .

We've added several new now pictures to the 'Frenzy' page



Picture 8. Barry Foster, and the ever lovely Rita Webb, hanging out of the first floor window of 3 Henrietta Street, Covent Garden, WC2.




Picture 8. Now, the same window, poo, pooded when I returned in triumph with the shot. “No”, said my little brother; he who appears in the stills of “Day the Earth Caught Fire”; “Could be any window”. “But the curly bits top and bottom”, I protested. “Could be any one of ten thousand similar”, said he. “The drainpipe?” I offered. “Millions of them”, he said with derision. “The entablature on the next window?”, said I with all my architectural vocabulary coming to the fore. He just snorted. And then, “Arrr, look at the chip out of the top of next door’s window”. We did, and it was the same in both shots.

So sometimes it’s the missing bits that prove the point, not just those that remain. . .
